No. I've thought the OpenStack policy is rude to contributors.
If your personal review queues are too spammy you should be more

I disagree without you that it is rude. I find them warmly welcoming new contributors even when they definitely lack python skill (my case a few months ago, that has improved thanks to their reviews).
I'm not saying OpenStack is rude, I'm sure they're all nice folks. I just find their abandonment policy rude :)
Finally, removing yourself from changes would not prevent you from seeing the bit rotting changes when you list all open changes for a set of repositories. On integration/* I keep them open as TODO item and there is only a handful of them so that remains manageable.
Per above, blindly searching for open changes isn't very useful. This is why we have dashboards.
Hey, we can even replace Abandon with Expire if that sounds less rude.
We're not doing custom builds of Gerrit anymore. This would fall under that.
